Nobody is refusing to work. People are refusing to perform desperation for jobs that aren't worth it.
For example, say there's a job that offers $22 an hour.
Sounds good. But what does it require?
A bachelor's degree. 3-5 years of experience.
Proficiency in seven software platforms. Availability on weekends.
Willingness to travel up to 40% and a positive attitude about the open office environment.
Then offers $19 after three interview rounds with benefits that kick in after 90 days.
And a culture of excellence that means unpaid overtime is expected.
#Eagles DC Vic Fangio opening his press conference today:
“I’m gonna be like Fauci and just take the Fifth Amendment on all questions. Did you guys see that? Oh my god.” 😅
@skumWgmi Dear god. Quit crying. No one in the history of mankind had it as easy as the boomers, but there were plently of generations that had it worse than you.
The US economy basically works like this:
Get paid: $4,500.
Give $1,800 to a landlord. Give $450 to health insurance. Give $400 to a car payment. Give $300 to gas. Give $350 to groceries. Give $200 to student loans.
Spend the rest surviving until next payday.
Then get lectured by someone who bought their house for $52,000 in 1985 about how you need to stop buying avocado toast and cancel Netflix.
Hunter Biden is absolutely correct. Just think 20+ years ago you could get a fine of $500k for illegally copying and distributing VHS, CDS DVDs. Etc.. As an individual person. Now they allow AI to steal EVERYTHING humans created so they can sell it back to you and trump just goes out on tv and says people are begging for data centers.
@swd2 What if the person sitting had a disability? Or had a recent surgery? This guy needs to be charged period. I agree he should also be banned from all MLB stadiums.
Universal Park in Frisco needs to rethink their model.
Or they will be done by 2030.
They're targeting elementary school kids at a time when elementary schools are shutting down city wide.
In a non-touristy suburb.
Outdoors, in Texas without shade.
And it's overpriced.
@HistoryBoomer for the 11-15% of women that cannot have children, are they no longer women by your definition?
And
Do Police stop crime or do they respond to crimes and help people after the crime is committed, with some rare occasions of stopping a crime in progress?
Trump lost fair and square in 2020. Only women can get pregnant. The Trump assassination attempts were real. Mitch McConnell is alive. Michelle Obama is not a man. Barack Obama is a citizen. America is less racist than most countries. Police stop crime. Tariffs hurt the economy.
One of my coworkers hates that I don’t do any overtime.
When 5pm hits my bag is already packed and I’m walking out the door.
I don’t stay late to help get the job done. I’m not a team player. I don’t care
If work can’t get done during normal business hours — there’s always tomorrow.
My buddy has $65k credit card debt
I agreed to help him create a budget
Here is his wife’s monthly spend:
$200 hair
$150 nails
$150 facials
$300 shoes
$100 waxing
$100 tanning
$150 makeup
$400 clothes
$40 eyebrows
$100 eyelashes
$250 hand bags
What should I even tell him? 😬
@BarbellFi Tell him the good news is his wife is the most well-maintained person in America. The bad news is at 24% APR she's also the most expensive subscription service in America and he forgot to cancel the free trial in 2019
@anttsinc They’re doing it on purpose. Before in the “normal times” of 2000 they wouldn’t approve such developments because the schools, roads and infrastructure could not handle so much new development.
But Trump has a plan and is bringing in H1 Thieves in by the millions. Good luck.
@anttsinc Yup. This pretty much nails it. It’s not the cost of the house, anymore. It’s the cost of owning the house. My daughter has $150k saved for a house, but when taxes/insurance/HOA add another $1,500/mo, they could give her the fucking house and she’d have trouble affording it
Ken Paxton (not with his wife) realizing the camera is pointed at him. Texas you have a binary choice. Thoroughly decent Talarico or this degenerate criminal scumbag.
